Design controls designates the application of a formal methodology to the conduct of product development activities. It is often mandatory (by regulation) to implement such practice when designing and developing products within regulated industries (e.g. medical devices ).
The US Food and Drug Administration requires that developers of medical device follow a system of design controls.A key part of this system is design review, defined in 21CFR820.3 section (h) as "a documented, comprehensive, systematic examination of the design to evaluate the adequacy of the design requirements, to evaluate the capability of the design to meet these requirements, and to ...
The FDA issued draft guidance on adaptive trial design in 2010. [7] In 2012, the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) recommended that the FDA "run pilot projects to explore adaptive approval mechanisms to generate evidence across the lifecycle of a drug from the pre-market through the post-market phase." While not ...
The FDA then requires these devices to undergo stringent clinical reviews. [5] For these reviews, the FDA require some type of clinical evidence or trials. [5] If the sponsor believes the device is low to moderate risk, the sponsor may apply to change this default classification. [5] The FDA, upon review may then reclassify these devices as de ...
Design review is also required of medical device developers as part of a system of design controls described in the US Food and Drug Administration's governing regulations in 21CFR820. In 21CFR820.3(h), design review is described as "documented, comprehensive, systematic examination of the design to evaluate the adequacy of the design ...
The FDA has outlined a regulatory framework [1] for PAT implementation. With this framework – according to Hinz [2] – the FDA tries to motivate the pharmaceutical industry to improve the production process. Because of the tight regulatory requirements and the long development time for a new drug, the production technology is "frozen" at the ...
An investigational device exemption (IDE) allows an investigational device (i.e. a device that is the subject of a clinical study [1]) to be used in order to collect safety and effectiveness data required to support a premarket approval (PMA) application or a premarket notification [510(k)] submission to Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

A design history file is a compilation of documentation that describes the design history of a finished medical device.The design history file, or DHF, is part of regulation introduced in 1990 when the U.S. Congress passed the Safe Medical Devices Act, which established new standards for medical devices that can cause or contribute to the death, serious illness, or injury of a patient.
